Subject: [PATCH] x86/fpu: Don't cache access to fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx

Precedence: bulk

The state/owner of FPU is saved fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx by pointing to the
context that is currently loaded. It never changed during the life time
of a task and remained stable/constant.

Since we deferred loading the FPU registers on return to userland, the
content of fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx may change during preemption and must
not be cached.
This went unnoticed for some time and was now noticed, in particular
gcc-9 is able to cache that load in copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() and reuse
it in the retry loop:

  copy_fpstate_to_sigframe()
    load fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx and save on stack
    fpregs_lock()
    copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() /* failed */
    fpregs_unlock()
         *** PREEMPTION, another uses FPU, changes fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx ***

    fault_in_pages_writeable() /* succeed, retry */

    fpregs_lock()
	__fpregs_load_activate()
	  fpregs_state_valid() /* uses fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx from stack */
    copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() /* succeeds, random FPU content */

This is a comparison of the assembly of gcc-9, without vs with this
patch:

Use this_cpu_read() instead this_cpu_read_stable() to avoid caching of
fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx during preemption points.

There is no Sign-off by here. Could this please be verified by the
reporter?

Also I would like to add
	Debugged-by: Ian Lance Taylor

but I lack the complete address also I'm not sure if he wants to.
Also please send a Reported-by line since I'm not sure who started this.
